Commission an artwork by Xavier de Vilmorin
We can arrange and oversee the creation of a new work, made specifically for you.
Young Parisian artist, Xavier de Vilmorin invites you to traverse a colorful, dreamy, and delicately nostalgic universe, shaped by works in acrylic, oil, and dry pastel. His work is a sensitive territory where emotion flows freely, a space where color becomes language and where forms tell what words silence.
From childhood, Xavier develops an instinctive relationship with drawing, as a way to grasp what moves him. But it is during his second year at animation school — in a small workshop in the 17th arrondissement — that he paints his first canvas. A founding moment, a kind of inner shift: he discovers the freedom of gesture, the density of materials, and above all, the power of colors to convey the intimate.
Recognized for his personal style, Xavier de Vilmorin composes his works like visual scores where simple geometric shapes and bold hues confront, intertwine, and reconcile. His influences are multiple — from cubism to expressionism — but he reinterprets them with a voice that belongs only to him, a vibrant pictorial writing where softness and tension coexist.
His canvases plunge the viewer into a world that is both atypical and familiar: a place where one finds an echo of oneself. Through his compositions, he freezes atmospheres, captures a moment, an emotion, a light. The material becomes memory, and color, a breath.
